Risk for contralateral breast cancer among carriers of the CHEK2(*)1100delC mutation in the WECARE Study

The protein encoded by the CHEK2 gene is involved in cellular repair of DNA damage. The truncating mutation, CHEK2(*)1100delC, seems to increase the risk for breast cancer. We investigated whether the CHEK2(*)1100delC mutation carrier status increases the risk for asynchronous contralateral breast c...
